I love AbFab but #YELLOWFACE is something I cannot watch - I just can't. It's sad when heroes are no longer heroic. Too bad. #racism

It's hard enough to get into film and TV as a person of color - and when roles written for us are played by white actors - it's an outrage.

Thank you for bringing this to everyone's attention, Margaret!

The character in question is a male, Japanese fashion designer named Huki Muki — which in itself could be perceived as offensive — but by casting Scottish comedian Janette Tough in the role, they're taking a part away from an Asian actor while actively partaking in yellow face.

We're sure Joanna Lumley, Jennifer Saunders, and the rest of the cast and crew didn't mean to be racist when they picked a white actor for the role, but it's almost 2016 and stuff like this shouldn't be happening!

"My metabolism actually changed like crazy this year. I have Hashimoto's disease. It's a thyroid disease, and it's now been two years since taking the medication for it, so for the VS show I didn't want to lose any more weight, I just want to have muscles in the right place, and if my butt can get a little perkier, then that's good."
